Mathematics
1 answer:
timurjin [86]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-5)=3(x-7)

Distribute

5x-25 = 3x-21

subtract 3x from each side

5x-25-3x = 3x-21-3x

2x-25 = -21

Add 25 to each side

2x-25+25 = -21 +25

2x=4

Divide by 2

2x/2 =4/2

x=2

SashulF [63]

In the given question,the given explicit formula is

a_{n) = 4+(n-1)(7)

Which is of the form

a_{n} = a +(n-1)(d)

So the constant difference is 7 here.

Now for the recursive formula

To find the next term, we need to add 7 to the current term, that is

a_{n} = a_{n-1} +7

So the correct option is B

Simplify this expression: (-2 - 8x) + (-4x - 10)
nevsk [136]

Answer:

The simplified form of expression<u> </u>(-2 - 8x) + (-4x - 10) is

-12(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given an expression (-2 - 8x) + (-4x - 10)

<u>To find the simplified expression of (-2 - 8x) + (-4x - 10)</u>

Let expression is given by

(-2 - 8x) + (-4x - 10) = -2 - 8x -4x -10

     = -2 -10 -4x -8x

     = -12 -12x

     -12(x + 1)   (since -12 is common in both terms)

Therefore simplified form is  -12(x + 1)

Answer:

4448 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula A = 2((l)x(w) + (l)x(h) + (w)x(h)) we can take the length, width and height and plug them in. A = 2(44x21 + 44x20 + 21x20), solving this equation we get 4448 feet^{2}.
